COMMON CROSSBILLS galore
16/07 17:50 : 13 COMMON CROSSBILLS : Gerrards Cross.
Second flock of the day, arrived from the NW, landed briefly in a Spruce tree, then headed off south. Both flocks today very agitated and flighty with constant calling, presumably desperate to find ripe cones (Rob Andrews)
Earlier, RDA had discovered a flock of 16 birds in Chalfont St Giles.

1 Yellow-legged Gull with ring 624J (as recorded previously)
1 Common Sandpiper
1 Oystercatcher (long-staying)
2 DUNLIN (5th day and looking very comfortable here; both in summer plumage; continually favouring the end of the spit where vegetation is relatively thick - can be hard to find at times but often both seen in open water)
